...except Better! About 200 times better and more Fun than any movie Hollywood has made in the last 15 years. Viewers of this Classic will not be subjected to any vile profanity, plastic enhanced tattooed Scags, no Fem males, no Obama loving minorities, and no mindless liberal pot heads. The girls are sexy and pretty and the men are normal and that's the way we liked in the 60's.

Definitely a guilty pleasure. A bunch of cute women in their underwear dancing to bad early 60s rock. Really bad dubbing. Cool spider. Cheesy monster. This is what your grandpa and grandma where watching at the drive in '62. Nice bit of time travel for a rainy Saturday night. Make some chili dogs, grab a cold beer, and enjoy.

No one can tell me this was not tongue in cheek! Even Roger Corman would be rolling in the aisles!

Subject: Original Cut?
According to the interwebs, this film was a recut of It's Hot In Paradise, they just removed all the nudity (save the barely visible skinny dipping) so they could unleash the movie on the poor poor masses.

Not a good flick, would like to see the original though.

Subject: I wonder if a 16 year old...
...would give it 5 stars as a previous reviewer stated. I tried it on a grandson. His review- "The opening scene was really neat with the old cars and at about thirty minutes in, the spider was neat in its badness. The movie really sucked and you owe me big time, Grandpa, for even asking me to watch it.
1 star cause they don't have a half star" I'll trust his judgment and skip this one.

Subject: Yuck!
The plot barely existed. The spider barely existed. I guess it was used as some kind of excuse to get a bunch of catty, almost nude women together on an island so they could fight each other and enjoy guys leering at them. All throughout the movie the ears are tortured by stupid sexy woman music. I was wishing I could fast-forward through most of it. In other words, a sixteen-year old boy would give it five stars.

Subject: Bad monster movie
A female dance troupe becomes stranded on a lonely island where giant, deadly, and mutagenic spiders roam.

This cheaply made, poorly acted, and poorly directed movie was clearly meant to appeal to teens. Filled with scantily clad, partially nude or nude young women often in titillating situations, a teenage mentality pervades. The acting, dialog, and editing gave me some good laughs.

I downloaded the mpeg1 file. The audio is out of sync through most of the movie.
